• Sports Day

  Mon 26 Jun 2023

  Whitehall Junior School had their Sports Day today and it was amazing to have so many families involved in this event again this year!  Our Sports Day combined a number of athletics events, with some healthy competition, to decide which house team would win the Sports Day trophy this year.  Despite the windy conditions throughout the day, all of our children persevered and worked hard to earn valuable points for their house team.  Not only did the children work hard to achieve their best, so did the wealth of parents / carers who volunteered to run in several parent races - thank you for your great sportsmanship and for helping to make the day extra special for all of the children.  Also, thank you to all of the families who remained with us at lunch time for a picnic on the school field; it was lovely to see so many of you join us for lunch and I know that the children enjoyed having families stay for lunch time too.  The final result was tight but Mill were the overall winners of Sports Day 2023 - congratulations, Mill House!  We are very much looking forward to the rest of Health and Fitness Week and we are certainly living up to our motto of 'Games For All'.

  Enormous congratulations to our eight mathematicians from Years 5 and 6 who represented us in the Maths Challenge at Bishopshalt on Wednesday. Our two teams did exceptionally well, resulting in first and second place. We are the proud holders of this trophy since the event began in 2016! Long may it continue. Well done to all involved - you deserved the praise shared in this morning's whole school assembly.

• River Studies at Denham Country Park

  Tue 20 Jun 2023

  Learning outside the classroom environment is a very powerful teaching and learning tool and all Year 6 pupils took part in a fieldwork trip on either Tuesday 20 or Wednesday 21st June to support their learning in their study of rivers in geography. They visited the Denham Country Park and were given the opportunity to take part in river dipping in the River Misbourne, and they also learnt how to measure the depth, width, and speed of flow of rivers.  The children gained a lot from this trip to support their learning of rivers in the classroom.
